Prediction
A fight between two prospects that no one expected to be on this season. Watching footage, I was more impressed with Brown because he is well-rounded and has some good fundamentals. Lockard, on the other hand, has good qualities but I don’t think he’s UFC-level. Brown may not be ready yet, but I think he is the better fighter who has more ways to win.
